⁸ “And what do I see flying like clouds to Israel,
    like doves to their nests?

¹⁰ In that day the heir to David’s throne^[a]
    will be a banner of salvation to all the world.
The nations will rally to him,
    and the land where he lives will be a glorious place.^[b]

³ When you go to war,
    your people will serve you willingly.
You are arrayed in holy garments,
    and your strength will be renewed each day like the morning dew.

¹⁰ The scepter will not depart from Judah,
    nor the ruler’s staff from his descendants,^[a]
until the coming of the one to whom it belongs,^[b]
    the one whom all nations will honor.
